Summary

Anastomotic leakage is the major postoperative complication in right colectomy. Evaluation of calcification on coeliac trunk and mesenteric arteries on the preoperative CT scan could allow the identification of patient at-risk of postoperative complications. A monocentric retrospective study performed at CHD Vendée concluded than a calcification score over or equal to 3 was associated with a higher risk of developping an anastomotic leakage. The aim of this prospective multicentric study is to validate a calcification score based on preoperative CT scan analysis and focussing at coeliac trunk and mesenteric arteries.This study will involve patients operated on with a scheduled right colectomy.
